I have seen lots of lovely cyclamen pictures here.
Can anyone please tell me how to fertilize them to get many flowers

Lovely foliage! First the look the same but a careful look all the difference and color patterns are seen and then even more differences in the reverse colors
Do they really grow at the mountains?
I thought they would grow in forest!?
The mountains are very nice and the Alps I presume

Art I contacted the seed manager so hopefully I get In contact  with him.

I will also check out CS on FB even if FB is a lot less organized compared to how I remembered it.
I get happy seeing the foliage I have in the garden so lovely to see it in the wild

By the way is hardy cyclamen used to decorate graves? C persicum are used as decoration in pots in Sweden before the frost takes them. I think hardy would be smart so wonder if they exist in cemeteries in the UK or in Europe? I have seem some Scilla and snowdrops run wild in some cemeteries and it makes them look nicer I think. Wild cyclamen in different foliage would be lovely in the hedges at the cemetery.

Stone, what a wonderful variety in C.purpurascens leaves!
I have only one small plant of C.purpurascens, grown from seed exchange seeds 2014, and it flowered this July for the first time.
Now there is a small seed pod, but it was still green when the cold weather came a week ago. I'm new to Cyclamen, is it so that the seeds mature only the next summer after flowering or should those seeds have been ripen already this autumn? How hardy are the developing seedpods? We have no snow yet, and the ground is frozen now. I covered the small plant with the seed pod with dry oak leaves to protect from cold.

Leena, seedpods from flowers pollinated this summer will slowly develop and won't be ready for harvest until next year, with pods fully ripe from early summer.
